It’s weird. The simple fact of being watched and told what you can say. And the possibility that what you’re saying is being edited and what you’re hearing is edited too.
This strikes me as abhorrent. But most of the people here call it necessary, preferable and even desirable.
Then I would say it is easy to make the comparison except that in this case they are more akin to clubs with set rules of behaviour, everyone is free to leave at any moment and not interact with anyone.
